Which browser do you use?
Safari because I own a Macbook Pro and an iPhone. Come at me.
>>54421549
The one I can customize.
Opera
>>54421580
which is?
I'm a fucking nigger so I use Firefox.
>>54421588
Firefox, obviously. I don't see Chrome letting you mess with its GUI to make drastic changes to its appearance.
Chromium as my main browser with a few tabs open
Cyberfox as my porn browser with 500 tabs open.
And that's not hyperbole, it takes awhile to launch now just because 500 tabs have to populate my tree style list.
>>54421677
Why chromium over firefox?
>>54421677
Have you timed how long opening 500 tabs at once slows the browser down before you can use it? Would a fast SSD cut down on that loading time?
Chrome
>>54421703
Literally why?
Opera, because it reminds me of my best friend, who recommended it to me before he passed away.
>>54421549
Holy shit /g/ is pleb

>SJWfox
>no palemoon
>no waterfox
>internet explorer even allowed in the rankings
>>54421729
those firefox forks all have their own problems
>>54421696
it just feels lighter in general.
I have used Firefox as my main even recently and I find myself bouncing back and forth between them.
Sometimes I get annoyed by chromiums limited codec support for instance.
I'm not really a fanboy for one or the other if that's what you're getting at.
>>54421700
I have an SSD and I can't remember if cyberfox is running off it.
It's not incredibly slow but I find myself switching desktop environments, using my main browser.
>>54421729
>palemoon
You are garbage, ma'am.
>>54421710
smoother, website search detection (tab searching) no useless bloat 'features', not sjw
>>54421549
I use edgy in winblows and firecucks on loonix
Used to have an androol fone, had cromeek there..
>>54421549
Any reason to use Chrome over Chromium?
>>54421785
codec support mostly. some websites dont work under chromium
Naked Browser.
Chrome/chrome beta- for all general shit I'm doing
Opera mini- when I hit bandwidth limit and shit carrier cap my speed to 128kbps
Cocoon- When I'm trying to access blocked sites
>>54421549
SeaMonkey.
> 2016
Not using Iceweasel
qutebrowser's the only one
all else are belong or to be bloat
>>54421957
It's called IceCat now.
Also, the majority of /g/ uses Firefox. No matter how much FUD Google shills try to spread.
Opera.
I really don't get that best browser thing since it's pretty much Chrome with a different style and a built in ad blocker.
The one created the guy who invented JavaScript... you know, that thing that powers the whole web? /g/ noobs get on my level?
IE or Edge because
superior performance (cheap Chinese box with atom x5 can smoothly play 4 k on a tv for example),
battery life
hardware acceleration (dat smooth scrolling).

vivaldi and chrome canary
vivaldi is a slow piece of shit but muh material design
Firefox
it's the only browser with a well working addon for organizing tabs into trees
>>54421580
Customize CSS ≠customize your browser
Also, Opera 12.x is the only browser I know that natively allow you to change a site's css

safari is the shit. best phone and pc browser
Chrome
I used to use Firefox but imho Chrome has a cleaner interface, Google integration is awesome, Firefox focusing on stupid shit like their shitty chat service, Firefox sync blows, Chrome has better HTML5 support/support for everything in general.
What are some good fonts to use for firefox on linux, the font rendering on my browser is abysmal
renamed Spartan
all web devs know, that the chrome/chromium dev tools are superior in every way...
>>54423993
Who the fuck still designs sites for ie?

Opera 12.17
>>54422411
> How to get cucked. The browser.
>>54421549
Firefox for general browsing and Chrome for video waching. Really trying to find something to replace both but I just keep coming back.
>>54423875
I like it
You're a dev? You're probably already using Chrome
You're a normie? Just use Chrome because Instagram won't work in Chromium, also Chrome is the safest and easiest way to use flash >in 2016

>>54425861
>Sadly the old, much more customizable version isn't really usable anymore
That's where you're wrong
>>54425898
I tried hard, but some websites don't even render fonts correctly as opera 12.16 doesn't support certain fonts.
>>54425926

please fucking kill yourself.
>>54421549
cyberfox. its really damn fast
>tfw people think muh raw speed is more important than a browser actually having a decent set of features
>>54421549
The least had choice among current browsers, vivaldi
>>54426007
From my experience Cyberfox is great. Never had it crash and it runs great on my shitty celeron. Also love their custom ui in windows
>>54422411
Brave has a shit ui and almost no options in the settings.
>>54421549
Chromium, but only because Firefox incorrectly displays a a lot of websites for me.
>>54425777
Is there a way to customize the ui in opera?
>>54421549
My rating:
1. Chrome (my main default browser)
2. Edge it's pretty good tho
3. IE 11 (middle tier)
4. Opera(is almost dead) (middle-tier)
5. SJWfox (is getting worse and worse) (shit-tier)
Have not used Safari since 2010
What is that thing in 6th place?
>>54426124
>having IE/Edge anywhere on the list of considerations
Opinion discarded
>>54426142
Maxthon
>>54426217

k-meleon
>>54426239
That's nice dear
>>54426239
Is older than Firefox, what's wrong with you?
>>54426075
Not much but still more than Chrome.
>>54426258
No it isn't. Initial release was 3 years later than firefox according to wikipedia
>>54421957
Why is that man spreading his anus?
>>54426056
It also doesn't render shit properly.
I typically wget any websites I want to read.
I will occasionally surf the internet live, using tor browser & an extension that replaces any closed source javascript with a FOSS equivalent.
>>54426239
Are you underage?
Internet Explorer all the day.
Best browser I had to far. Edge go home.
Firefox 28
>>54421729
Stop shilling for palememe, Firefox will always be superior.
>>54423875
As a chrome user I like it a lot. The only thing I don't like is how it handles separating tabs into new windows. I like being able to do it with my mouse like in chrome.
>>54422565
Vivaldi is nice but it's slow as fuck.
>>54425527
Shame VPN got raped by /b/ cunts.
>>54421549
Chropera and Vivaldo.
Used to use Maxthon but lack of sensible extensions made me drop it.
Chrome. Just works everywhere, no flash download no nuffin. Updated flash on Linux.
When I need to care about my privacy I use tor and tails.
Right tool for the job. \o/
I use Chromium.
Firefox on Linux because muh customization and privacy
Opera on Windows because Firefox on windows is a ticking time bomb if you have more than 3 tabs open or Youtube
>>54424120
isn't the development for this dead?
waterfox
>>54430101
Yes. But I find it useful anyway.
>>54423875
>>54429487
This, really is the only downside.
Really liking it so far. Switched to it on most of my machines.
>>54421549
I'm using my own fork of Firefox. I have optimized its code for low spec hardware and was able to boost the performance by roughly 18% and battery llife by 9%.
Internet Explorer
>>54421549
fierfaux
has my addons
Vivaldi.
uzbl
This summer update edge will become the best.
Edge will have the extensions + the best HD player in browser.
Opera, and I am trying to move to Vivaldi, but I can't redirect the "new tab" to my own webpage, which is a deal-breaker for me
The redirection extensions are useless
>>54423875
It's nice, but I don't see the reason to switch.
>>54421549
I use browser #113, of course. :^)
>>54421549
Iridium all the way, never going back to cuckfox.
I tried waterfux and pale mum, both were just as slow and bloated as cuckfox.
>I also still gave Opera installed and use it now and then out of pity
>>54421651
please post screenfetch
>>54435698
that's windows
>>54421549
chrome because it has the coincidence detector
Been wanting to switch to Seamonkey from Palemoon, but I haven't gotten tree tabs and Downthemall working.
Yandex with classic theme for Windows, Iridium for Linux.
>>54435722
how? :P
>>54436071
you're going to have to ask in the desktop threads
>>54421549
Iceweasel 38.7.1
>>54435831
If you do somehow modify tree tabs and get it working, do share with the rest of us Seamonkey users because you would be the first. As for Downthemall, it stopped working for me on Seamonkey only recently.
>>54435831
>tree tabs
same reason for me
>>54423875
Ignore the trolls. It's not good. It has a ridiculous amount of issues. You have to use the unstable version to get past most of the silly bugs but that opens a whole can of worms. They're shilling it super hard for some reason.
Chrome. I stopped caring for Firefox which was becoming more like Chrome and all of the other Chrome reskins and just used the original.
>>54435722
Now that bash runs on Windows, who's going to port screenfetch to it?
>>54437032
>You have to use the unstable version to get past most of the silly bugs but that opens a whole can of worms.
Development on Vivaldi has moved a lot faster than you're thinking. I haven't had any issues using the snapshots for a very long time. In fact the only issues I have are when they change behaviors or add a feature. So not bugs, just design issues, which they tend to rectify with the next snapshot.
>>54421549
Opera would be leaps and bounds better than anything else if the UI was customizable, but as it is Firefox barely wins.
>>54437352
>using bash
don't need that, there's this thing called cygwin you can use to run screenfetch from
>>54425527
>Video pop-out for maximum coziness
Too bad the pop-out turns down the saturation of the video. It would be great if it wasn't for that.
>>54421580
Why do you want to do that?
>>54437609
All the cool neets are doing it
>>54437628
Seems like a pointless waste of time.
>>54437667
Well, it is. Which is why the 'neets' are doing it. If you have nothing to do with your time, might as well do that, right?
>>54433669
Where do you get that?
>>54422378
GNU IceCat is actually a different project developed by the FSF thats been around for years
Iceweasel was mostly just a debranded firefox maintained by debian
Last I heard Iceweasel is being discontinued soon so it would be cool if debian sponsored IceCat as their default browser
>>54437716
fuck you rms
>>54437609
Because there's icons and interfaces I don't use and I want to get rid of them or hide them.
I'm waiting for a browser that can be as customizable as FF, but therein lies the problem: if you make it customizable you can get rid of not only website elements like ad frames that contain ads but also browser elements the developers may not want you to remove, like Pocket.

Is there anyway to save and then close all tabbed images to a specified folder in Opera? Only thing keeping me on firefox is Bazzacuda Image saver plus.
>>54437833
Does it have a Chrome extension? If so, it'll work great fine on Opera.
>>54421549
Lynx
Microsoft Internet explorer. It's all you need.
>>54421549
I've unfortunately have stopped using freedomfox recently. It kept crashing on me and would have major memory leaks and consuming several gigs because I opened a few google maps tabs. I mean I normally do have a lot of stuff open, but chrome seems to handle it much better.
Did I make the right choice?
>>54439040
Try out Firefox Developer Edition, it's much better.
Also, Opera is objectively better than Chrome.
>>54426766
you're fun
>>54439146
i Dont know how I feel about that
>>54439515
I used to use one of the dev builds years ago, but I got tired of the constant updating lel. I'll try it again, thanks
>>54421729
what's the point of waterfox?

I wish I could use Firefox full-time, but it's so slow. Chrome may eat up resources, but it remains snappy with lots of tabs and extensions.

Is there a way to change the colour of the tabs and the menu bar in Opera?
Opera, is the primary French browser =)
>>54426124
Yeah this is terrible bait.
>>54421549
Nightly, it consumes wayyyyyy less ram than latest stable version of firefox and it works smoother with hundreds of tabs opened.
0 crashes in a looong long time.
>>54426607
It also replaces sites ads with ads of its own to make money and actively profiles you to serve the correct ads to you.

Aurora and dev are basically the same yes. For customization there are themes, about:config and stylish.
